Re: Selecting certain records in a logical file

Hi,

you can just use + or - sign to continue to the next line...

A R FILERECR PFILE(PHYSICALF)
A K KEY1
A K KEY2
A S ERRMSG VALUES('This is just an example of
w-
A hat I mean')

Hi everyone
Before I forget - we are on V7r1

I have not come across this before, and my searches do not come up with a
solution, so I am hoping someone knows about this situation, or can point
me in the right direction
We have a file, that contains multiple records, and on the record is an
error message of 50 characters
There can be MANY different values in this error message, but in one
instance, I only want to process records that have one particular error
message
How can I create a logical over the physical with a select, using, for
example VALUES, if the value needs to be defined over more than 1 record
For example
A R FILERECR PFILE(PHYSICALF)
A K KEY1
A K KEY2
A S ERRMSG VALUES('This is just an example of
w
A 'hat
I mean')

Is this even possible to continue into the next line?

As always - any and all responses gratefully accepted
